This Wednesday, I’ll be giving a presentation about differentiable Swift at PassiveLogic’s Salt Lake City office for the Utah Swift Developers Meetup: x.com/passivelogic/status/16…
12 Dec 2022
Looking for plans for this Wednesday evening? Why not spend it learning w @bradlarson?
Prior to PassiveLogic he was a member of the Swift for TensorFlow team at Google where differentiable @ServerSideSwift was originally developed.

We grew two sets of petunias this year. The ones with the pink flowers wilted early and never came back. The purple petunias struggled initially, but came back strong and bloomed longer than anyone expected. The last purple flower petals just fell. x.com/RedQueenCoder/status/1…

Olive Pitt Larson peacefully crossed the rainbow bridge this morning. She was surrounded by her family. She fought until the end. Now her watch is ended. Rest peacefully little werewolf.

Cool project -- @stackoverflow and @KiwixOffline have created an offline version of Stack Overflow, so coders without reliable Internet access can use it: stackoverflow.blog/2022/10/2…
Use cases so far:
- prisoners learning programming
- South Pole researchers
- students in Cameroon

Wow, quite the story. 👇🏻👇🏻
Founding Arxiv is apparently not good for your academic career.
Good evidence that improving how science works is insufficiently incentivized.

I just noticed that flowkey, a popular piano lesson app, has officially released a SwiftWasm-based web app!
They said, "We were able to use 100% of our mobile app's business logic for the most essential part of our app" 🥳

We're happy to announce the the #graphql #swift library entering official SSWG review! Maturity review helps users be confident in libraries and helps the longlevity of the server ecosystem.
Thank you Jay for the proposal!
